2022 Cadillac XT4 vs. 2022 Cadillac XT5

Find out whether the 2022 Cadillac XT4 or XT5 is a better fit for you in The Villages with this side-by-side comparison from Sullivan Cadillac.

2022 Cadillac XT4 vs. XT5: Engine Options 

There’s no difference between the 2022 Cadillac XT4 and XT5 standard engines. Both come equipped with a 237-hp turbocharged four-cylinder engine, which you might argue would move the lighter XT4 along a bit faster. However, the turbo-four is the only engine available for the XT4. The XT5 can be upgraded with a V6 that boosts both horsepower and torque, as you can see when you compare Cadillac SUV performance specs:

Cadillac XT4 Engine

• 2.0L Turbo 4-cylinder engine the delivers 237 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque

Cadillac XT5 Engines

• 2.0L Turbo 4-cylinder engine the delivers 237 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque
• 3.6L V6 engine that delivers 310 hp and 271 lb-ft of torque 

As mentioned above, the XT4’s smaller size gives it the edge in terms of fuel efficiency. It gets up to 24 MPG in the city and up to 30 MPG on the highway, while the XT5 earns a still-respectable 22 MPG city and 29 MPG highway. That’s a fairly minor difference, but definitely enough to impact your annual fuel costs in Lady Lake.

2022 Cadillac XT4 vs. XT5: Dimensions & Seating

Either the 2022 Cadillac XT4 or XT5 will seat up to five passengers, but the XT5 does it with more space to spare. That’s a benefit if you need to fit gear, supplies, or bulky items inside the cabin along with your passengers. On the other hand, the smaller frame of the XT4 makes it easier to park and maneuver—an obvious benefit for anyone who does a lot of driving in Gainesville rush hour traffic. Compare the Cadillac SUVs in terms of cargo volume, below:

• Cadillac XT4: Up to 22.5 cubic feet behind the 2nd row, up to 48.9 cubic feet behind the 1st
